The Voyage (Italian: '''Il viaggio'''; also released as The Journey) is a 1974 romantic drama film directed by Vittorio De Sica, based on the short story Il viaggio by Luigi Pirandello. It was De Sica's final film.[1]
Set in Sicily in the years leading up to World War I, Adriana De Mauro loves Cesar Braggi, but Cesar, honoring his father's dying wish, allows his brother Antonio to marry her. As fate wills, Antonio dies in an automobile accident. Adriana's mourning for Antonio ends when Cesar steps in to rekindle her lust of life. Soon, Adriana begins having dizzy spells. Cesar brings her to a specialist, and she is diagnosed with having an incurable disease. For the rest of their time together, Cesar woos Adriana and eventually proposes to her on a gondola. Yet Signora De Mauro, Adriana's mother, is not pleased with the relationship and argues bitterly with Cesar and stands in the way.
